Please feel free to pass on any feedback.

Thank you, Dylan. I can't stand a boat that looks like it's for
sale...all prim and proper as if noone ever slept drunk on the settee or
walked through to the head in their foulies wet from spray. Too neat
makes me feel unwanted.

Too bad you're not near Charleston. Wiring is one of my specialties as
I'm an electronic technician with marine experience. It's how I wheedle
sailing out of my friends, working on their boats. We'd soon have a new
wiring harness ready. I can't stand electrical fires...(c; Your boat
should be quite simple to rewire.

My friend Geoffrey is from London. He used to play pro Rugby when he was
young. He has an old Amel Sharki 41 ketch I filled with electronic
gadgetry he loves. I even found in this very newsgroup her "new" Perkins
4-108 from a chap in North Carolina, complete down to the control panel.
The Perkins' 50 hp pushes her about 6-7 knots, but we always sail, even
if the air is very light....unless there are people aboard who are antsy
to get somewhere. They have no business on a sailboat. Being becalmed
just means we get to stay at sea another week and party until the wind
comes up. We don't sail without Newcastle, Bass and Boddington's aboard
for such emergencies.

Well, I can see you're busy pulling cables and making up new connectors
from the cable reels on the dock. Fresh breezes all around...it's 84F in
Charleston. The water temp is coming up nicely for the beaches. Bring
her across. We got plenty of hook spaces and expensive marinas that take
Pound Sterling...(c; There's 3,200 miles of navigable waterways within
50 miles of my keyboard. You can set the hook and never see another soul
for days all round here.
